Wolfs trailer: Brad Pitt and George Clooney play ‘basically the same guy’ in their first film together in 16 years

Wolfs trailer: Brad Pitt and George Clooney previously appeared in Ocean’s Eleven and Burn After Reading. The film will feature them as fixers.

Actors Brad Pitt and George Clooney reunite after 16 years for Jon Watts’ upcoming action comedy Wolfs. The trailer, which was published on Wednesday, portrays them as two lone-wolf fixers attempting to deal with a botched killing before it escalates.

Wolf’s Trailer
The 2-minute-43-second clip depicts a lady calling a fixer for assistance following a murder. Unfortunately, it appears that more than one individual was sent in to do the work. George and Brad make it obvious that it is “not how (they) work,” but they have no choice. Soon, they learn that the body they’re transporting may not be dead after all, causing havoc. To their annoyance, the person they’re dealing with even identifies them as “basically the same guy”.

About Wolfs
The film, directed by Jon, is produced by Brad and George through Plan B Productions and Smokehouse Pictures. Apple is also co-producing the film, which will be distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing. Austin Abrams, Amy Ryan, and Poorna Jagannathan join the starring couple in Wolfs.

Fans responded to the clip, calling it a reunion they ‘deserve’. One user remarked, “The Oceans franchise meets Bullet Train.” This is exactly the kind of movie we were looking for!” Someone more remarked, “Ocean’s Eleven vibes man…. its gonna be a feast for cinephiles.”

Brad and George’s Reunion
Brad and George haven’t acted together in 16 years. They appeared together in Ocean’s Eleven and its sequels, Ocean’s Twelve and Thirteen. Burn After Reading, their last film together, was released in 2008.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight in December, George cynically remarked that he was working with “pretty boy” Brad again because “he needed work, he’s an up-and-comer.” When asked if it felt like no time had gone while working on Wolfs, George replied, “No, it feels like a long time has passed.” “Too much time.”

Wolfs hits theaters on September 20.
